Are you thinking of upgrading your RAM to DDR5?
DDR5 is the latest version of RAM to hit the market, and it certainly packs a punch. To show how this could upgrade your performance, were comparing the DDR5 to our previous model, the DDR4.
DDR4 vs DDR5
In previous DDR upgrades, we usually see an additional speed increase of 266MT/s. But moving from DDR4 to DDR5, theres a 1600MT/s upgrade. So the DDR5 RAM launch speeds will deliver nearly double the bandwidth of DDR4.
But its not just faster. Its better at channel efficiency, power management and is optimized to scale with your demanding multi-core workloads or games. DDR5 translates to a better experience across the board.
The speed of DDR5 means you can be watching YouTube, have multiple Chrome tabs open while editing family photos, and chat with friends on social media. To work faster and better, DDR5 is engineered for efficiency.
This technology brings multiple benefits, including increased bandwidth and channel efficiency. DDR4 and previous generations perform well below bandwidth capacity - DDR5 offers a bank refresh, increasing bandwidth efficiency and 75% bank usability.
